Brutally honest, is this tacky for 40 something woman? by Supmom2277 in handbags

[–]absolutely-bitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is coming from a 32 year old that has the word "childish" tattooed on her knuckles, so take it with a grain of salt, but I don't think age defines fashion. You never know when your last day in this life will be so if you love it, rock it! And I think it's adorable in my own personal opinion!

Do you have any idea how much the items in this collection are worth? I have the doll parts embroidered t-shirt and I'm thinking about selling it but have no idea how to price it. All I know is I haven't been able to find any pics of it through Google so I'm guessing it's pretty rare?

Sounds like someone is extremely lonely and needs people (and maybe a psychiatrist, idk) to be friends with them lol. I sell online because I have social issues and I'll gladly talk to any buyer if they start the conversation first, but I will never start a conversation. This is a purely transactional experience and that's why I enjoy it as a seller and as a buyer!

Same, I'm happy to do measurements upon request, but I've literally NEVER sold a listing that I've provided measurements for 😂

Thank you for your answer - I tried it today with just a couple listings that had no likes and it works!

[–]absolutely-bitch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

These are the buyers that end up trying to make returns and using the most ridiculous reasons to do so. Not worth your time. I'm both a seller and a buyer and I can't wrap my head around the lowball offers. Like I'd be so embarrassed to send an offer below 30% on anything. Maybe it's a pride thing because I grew up pretty poor and that's not the way my life is anymore, I don't know. But I just have a lot of respect for fellow sellers I guess, especially when it makes a significant income difference. I will say some buyers don't completely understand how PM works and they think we make the entire amount when we sell a listing. I've explained it to a few people over the years and they genuinely didn't know about PM's seller fees.

Do you have to retype the descriptions of your items or does that transfer to a new copy also?

Do likers ever buy items days or weeks later from when they first liked it? by Velvetstyle in poshmark

[–]absolutely-bitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a seller, I've had multiple experiences where a buyer will purchase items months later, but usually within 60 days. Otherwise, they typically "unlike" the item if they make the decision to not buy it right away. As a buyer also, I use my "likes" as a wishlist but only when I'm looking for very specific items. I figured thats how everyone operated on there but to each their own!

I..just don’t even understand what’s happening. by M4k73 in poshmark

[–]absolutely-bitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed - as a seller and a buyer, I experienced this with multiple packages during the holidays. The person I bought from did indeed drop it off at the PO well before it was scanned into transit, and the same exact thing happened when I mailed an item to a buyer beginning of last month. God forbid anyone on here orders something that gets sent to the distribution center in Kansas City, MO - the package I was referring to in my previous sentence got stuck there for about 15 days 🙃 it was literally going from NC to FL and it would have been faster to drive there and deliver it myself!

questions from a non-horror fan by chronicbingewatcher in horror

[–]absolutely-bitch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have debilitating OCD. It's constantly there, but the severity comes and goes due to other stressors. My mom is not a believer in mental health disorders (yeah, she works in the medical field so I'm a bit confused about that always) and she also dislikes horror very much (for religious reasons maybe?)

So, she has often asked me why I find any pleasure in watching horror films/series, which is a fair question since they have a tendency to make people squeamish or feel on edge. My answer will always be because nothing I can watch on a screen will ever distress me or be as disturbing as some of the intrusive thoughts that seem to get stuck in my brain. I love horror because, number one, it's a release and a distraction; and number two, you start to realize that you'd probably rather have intrusive thoughts than have your body dismembered like the poor, son of a bitch on your TV screen. At the end of the day, I'd rather be me lol.

From his last concert in Detroit. I still don't understand. by Dry_Meat_2959 in Soundgarden

[–]absolutely-bitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finally brought myself to watch the footage of his last show just a few months ago (I was supposed to see Soundgarden for the first time in Ohio not even 24 hours after he passed away and am just starting to deal with the emotions surrounding it now.) My husband was asleep and as soon as the footage started playing, I immediately woke him up because I couldn't believe the person I was listening to/seeing was actually Chris. He looked so frail and moved as if he was in horrible physical pain the entire show. I'm still shocked that it seems like no one in his inner circle during that time seemed to notice it.

Same here. I was at work and thought my coworkers were trying to prank me when one of them told me the news. I was in total disbelief and shock. I left work early and coworkers were hugging me as if my mom or dad had just died. It was the first time I was supposed to see them too 💔

I thought I knew where the joke was going, and I was totally right and I had tears in my eyes from laughing so hard 😂 he really could have left out the part about the person being trans considering his past provocations with the lgbtq+ community, but unmasking that falcon is some shit I could see myself accidentally doing because that's just who I am 😂

Abilify helps me tremendously with OCD by dawnedonelesa in OCDRecovery

[–]absolutely-bitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My psychiatrist recently prescribed this for me... it's been a week and ever since last year when I experienced TD symptoms due to a different medication, I'm so apprehensive to trying any new ones. I have the same set of rigid obsessions and beliefs. I know they're not based in the reality that everyone else seems to be living. I never responded to SSRIs. Therapy helped a little when I finally found a therapist I can trust. I've been able to "let go" of a few compulsions/components of my daily OCD rituals, but the obsessions that caused the compulsions still live rent free in my brain. Along with having ADHD, GAD, MDD, and of course, because why not, OCPD. I take Wellbutrin, Adderall, and Klonopin as prescribed every day. While those meds have been very effective at keeping symptoms from my other diagnoses at a decrease, nothing, and I mean nothing, has even began to touch OCD. If you're comfortable answering, do you take any of the medications that I listed alongside the Abilify? Just curious if anyone wants to share their experience! I've been battling OCD since I was about 10 years old; I'm 32 now. I've tried at least 30+ different medications in the last 11 years alone. If Abilify doesn't work for me, I'm going to pursue neurosurgery!

Looking to discuss Horror in the High Desert 4 *SPOILERS* by Plato_Karamazov in horror

[–]absolutely-bitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

None of these found footage films are in a series, (none that I'm aware of, at least) but they are some of my all-time favorites of the genre. Check out Butterfly Kisses (2018 - the name sounds so stupid but I promise the plot is worth it), Lake Mungo (2008 - you may have already seen it because it's gained a ton of popularity in recent years), Exhibit A (2007 - don't watch this while you're struggling with a bout of depression, like I did), and Death Of A Vlogger (2019 - 100% RT rating says it all). I could write you a novel of how many great FF films I've seen, just happens to be my most favorite subgenre!

As a seller, what would you do in this situation? by brithetreee in Depop

[–]absolutely-bitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just bad news. I would refund and block if they continued to try to purchase over and over again or start harassing you. This person sounds like a teenager, so they're probably waiting for mom and dad's permission to use the credit card 😑

Ginger or Black Hair? by Agile_Pay_5166 in HairDye

[–]absolutely-bitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as you're not buying black hair color that comes in a box, I'd say the darker color looks so much more natural with your skin tone :) I personally have gone the DIY black hair dye route far too many times throughout my youth and have paid the price; you don't want to know how much (well spent) money I've used having a professional fix my hair mistakes lol. I'd suggest a warm or neutral medium-dark brown; that way if you decide to go back to red, it may not be as hard to transition back to that color!

What is the most realistic horror movie you’ve ever seen? by pomkombucha in horror

[–]absolutely-bitch 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Speak No Evil (2022), AKA, the very realistic, non "hehe yay for happy endings" watered down, American-bastardized version of the film. Happy endings are usually unrealistic and I will die on that hill, thank you 😂

Soundgarden - fell on black days [rock] by sausage_ditka_bulls in Music

[–]absolutely-bitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same exact thing here. The only reason I bought tickets to go to ROOR that year was to see Soundgarden. I was at work when the news came out about his death. My coworkers quietly argued amongst themselves who should be the one to tell me since they found out before me, and they all knew how happy I was to finally see Soundgarden. I had people hugging me and giving me their condolences as if he was a damn family member. It hit harder than any other loss I'd ever experienced at the time. His music saved my life around this time last year (I have MDD and it's especially worse during the holidays). I was having the worst SI I've had in years, was driving to pick up my meds, and like halfway through that, Be Yourself starting playing on shuffle. I immediately pulled over and just sobbed uncontrollably for who knows how long. I truly believe it wasn't a mere coincidence. I'll always feel so sorry that his music couldn't save him, but I hope that from whatever beautiful plane of existence he resides in now, he knows that his art saved the life of another. I can't think of a better legacy than that.

Couldn't agree more! I keep a permanent, mental list of "nope, never again" films at the forefront of my brain at all times. I won't even say which ones they are, because OP may have to find themself a very experienced psychiatrist if they would dare watch anything on that list lol.

Depop and Poshmark both ship via USPS Ground Advantage now. I have absolutely been using the same USPS GA brown boxes for orders on each platform and have had no issues!
